The Forcella di Monte Rest, at an altitude of 1,052 metres, connects the high Pordenone area with the low Carnia. Both sides are characterized by winding and narrow roads, sometimes very steep.

Cycling

Also known as Passo Rest, Forcella di Monte Rest is one of the most famous climbs in the Carnic Prealps. Often closed in winter, it connects Val Tramontina with the upper Tagliamento valley. The first time the Giro d'Italia passed through here, in 1974, the Spaniard Santiago Lazcano was the first to reach the top.
